Testosterone Friendly Food #1: Quinoa

Quinoa is known as “The Grain of the Gods.” However, it is not scientifically a grain, but similar enough to be grown for its edible seeds. This food has many properties that will likely help increase your muscle mass, hormones and bedroom prowess. Quinoa:

Has significant amounts of both lysine and isoleucine to serve as a complete protein source (14 g) readily available for use.

Contains ecdysteroids, including 20-hydroxyecdysterone, which some studies have shown to possess anabolic (aka muscle building) properties.

Fun fact: the United Nations has declared 2013 International Year of Quinoa.

Testosterone Friendly Food #2: Cruciferous vegetables

Get rid of excess estrogen by eating RAW cruciferous vegetables:

Broccoli

Cauliflower

Cabbage

Other members of Brassica genus

The testosterone benefits of these vegetables are the anti-estrogen chemicals 3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM) and indole-3-carbinol (I3C), as well as the anti-cancer compounds sulforaphane and selenium. Mom was right: eat your veggies!

Testosterone Friendly Food #3: Berries

Forget Viagra. Mother Nature’s original blue potency capsules may do even more for you. Blueberries, and other berries such as blackberries and raspberries, are not only delicious, but loaded with free radical scavenging antioxidants. For many older men, an accumulation of free radical damage to mitochondria and endothelial tissues may be a contributing factor to low testosterone and sexual dysfunction. The antioxidants in berries contribute to the fight against oxidative damage from free radicals which helps keep testosterone levels up (amongst other things). Basically, they help relax blood vessels and improve blood flow. For maximum potency and performance, eat a serving of blueberries at least three or four times a week.

Testosterone Friendly Food #4: Avocados, olives, and olive oil

These three testosterone-boosting foods (avocados, olives and olive oil) contain the highest percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs). In research I helped conduct at Penn State University (see Testosterone Tip #2), we showed that men who ate the highest levels of MUFAs also had the highest testosterone levels. Other foods naturally high in monounsaturated fats are pecans, almonds, cashews and high oleic versions of sunflower and safflower oil.

Garlic’s active ingredient enhances testosterone levels and inhibits cortisol, a hormone that competes with testosterone, limiting its actions and breaking down muscle tissue. Season other foods with garlic when you can, but eating whole cloves provides the most direct benefit.

Testosterone Friendly Food #6: Green tea

The antioxidant catechins in green tea – most notably EGCG – are decent aromatase inhibitors, meaning that they can prevent the conversion of testosterone to estrogen, therefore stabilizing our hormones. Green tea is also a natural source of caffeine and L-theanine, a mood enhancing amino acid.

Men have to understand that benefits of testosterone-boosting foods are not just limited to having a good sex drive, instead it positively affects the holistic health of which male sexual health, is a vital part. With balanced testosterone levels in body, one feels energized, has vitality and there is better blood circulation.

Sure, most men want increasedtestosterone and more muscle, and these foods will certainly help with that, but they will also significantly reduce your risk for chronic diseases like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.
